Visiting Kwahadi is much more than just a history lesson. The whole family will be drawn into the story of how these first inhabitants of our country were resourceful and creative. See how they survived the North Texas elements to create beautiful art. An extension of that creativity is their custom of dancing as celebration and spiritual homage. Take in the bronze artwork on display by such renowned artists as Thomas E. Mails and Tom Knapp. The Kwahadi Dancers are officially Venture Crew 9 and perform most Friday and Saturday nights. Remember to stop at the gift store to purchase unique art pieces, statues, and other keepsakes.
